Hi Jean-Jacques, I finally have a better understanding of your problem. Thanks for all the material you've supplied via this Jira and as email attachments. One option that we've had a lot of success in the past with to speed up deployment/redeployment from the GEP is to use the sharedlib capability of Geronimo. Since you cannot send me your Eclipse workspace I wonder if you have one or more POJO projects in your workspace that is shared amongst multiple web projects in your workspace (i.e, there is a J2EE dependency between the Web project and the POJO which will embed the POJO JAR in the Web project's WAR).

If so, when using sharedlib support, when the WAR gets deployed the POJO project will get deployed in-place to the sharedlib, and the actual contents of the POJO do not get copied over. instead a Dummy JAR gets created inside sharedlib that contains a manifest file that points back to the project in the workspace. This can significantly speed up deployments within Eclipse especially when there are many deployable artifacts with the same POJO dependency. 

Do you know if this is the case with your workspace ?? If not we'll have to search for another alternative. Thanks much

> WTP 201
>            Reporter: Jean-Jacques Parent

> I have installed wtp-all-in-one-sdk-win32 and than follow the instructions as suggested in
> http://geronimo.apache.org/geronimo-eclipse-plugin-installation-instructions.html.
> I have also manually installed the plugin: geronimo-eclipse-plugin-2.0.0-deployable.zip
> I configured the server geronimo and try to start it without deploying anything yet.
> In the eclipse console, a message indicates that the server startup is complete, but the status in Eclipse is still 'starting'. 
> Indeed, the server is started, I can use the web console, but then comes the timeout and the server stops.
> Is it a configuration problem?
> Thanks
